SEA WOLF REPORTED
GOING AT URGE
'
^ferWan' Raider Continues to
Be Centre of Interest in
World War
BERLIN ANNOUNCES
CAPTURE OF TOWN
Reports Progress in Direction
of Sereth Line With Taking
of Nanesti.
The unidentified German raider in
tlu South Atlantic and details nowcoming
to light suggesting that she
may have been accompanied by three
small submarines acting as scouts,
continue to be an outstanding naval
feature of the war. Arrival of the
Royal Mail liner Dritia at Rio do
Janeiro eliminated one of the largest
steamers from the list of the sup
posed victims of the commerce
destroyer. A strange steamer, wit
four funnels, sighted off Ccara.
zil, steaming at high speed suggested
possibility that the raider \va:
near the northern coast of Brazil.
The capture of the town of Nanesti
on the Sereth river by German
troops on Friday is the latest important
development on the war fronts.
The Russian forces are continuing
their counterattacks in the eastern
Carpathians and north of the Suchitza
valley on the Moldavian frontier.
bllt tin* Horlin win- 1 r* r\ I
nounces that tlie Russians assaults
generally wore cheeked in hand tr
hand encounters and that in one of
them the Russians lost several hundred
in killed and 400 made prisoner.
Two attacks delivered by the
Teutonic forces in the course of
heavy fighting at other points on
the Moldavian frontier were repulsed
by Russians.
There were no important developments
on the Russo-German battle
line and patrol attacks and repulse*
constituted tho chief actions in the
Franco-Belgian war theatre. Quiet
was reported on the Macedonian
front.
An official announcement by the
British government concerning the
explosion which destroyed a munitions
factory located the scene of the
blast more definitely as in East Eondon,
and stated that 30 or 40 bodies
already had been recovered from the
ruins and that 100 persons were repolled
to be seriously injured. The
total number of killed had not' been
ascertained when thn
communication was made public, but
the minister of munitions stated that
the disaster would make no practical
difference in the output of war mil
nitions. In connections wi'.h the failure
of the British authorities t?>
identify the factory destroyed, it
-v/as recalled that the great Wool
wich arsenal lies seven miles east of
London on the Thames river. Abou'
(>7,000 persons are said to be em
ployed therein.
Ten persons were killed and 20 in
jurcd by an explosion in a munitions
laboratory at Spandau, Prussia.

OBITUARY.
Death visited my home and took
from me my darling husband.
'Tis sweet to watch thee in thy sleep,
When thou, my love art dreaming;
Tis sweet o'er thee a watch to keep,
To make the smile that seems to
creep
O'er thee, like day-light gleaming.
'Tis sweet to mark thy tranquil
breast
Heave like a small wave flowing;
To see thee take thy gentle rest,
To make thee now, or when awake
Sad thoughts, alas! Steal o'er me;
For thou in time a part must take,
That may th/ fortunes mar or make,
In the wide world before thee.
But I, my darling have hopes of thee,
And may they ne'er be blighted;
That I, years hence, may live to see
Thy name as dear to all as me,
Thy virtue well requited.
I'll watch the dawn of joys and mold
Thy little mind to duty;
I'll teach the words, as I behold
Thy faculties, like flowers, unfold
In intellectual beauty.
And then, perhaps, when I am dead,
And friends around me weeping,
Thou'lt ?ee me to my grave, and shed
A tear upon my narrow bed,
When I shall then be sleeping.
A few short years of evil past,
We reach the happy shore,
Where death-divided friends, at last.
Shall meet, to part no mere.

MRS. 0. M. JOHNSON.

THE HOR&Y HE
r TICK ERADICATION WORK
To Be Established March I, 1917,
in Horry County.
There appears to be a doubt in the
minds of quite a few cattle owners in
Horry County us to whether tin
regular disinfection of cattle, to
eradicate the cattle tick, will be put
into effect this spring. In this connection
wc beg to advise such parties,
through your valuable paper,
that effective March 1, 1917, the
woik of tick eradication will be es
tublished systematically in Horry
County. By this we mean that oi.
that date duly appointed cattle intions
of all cattle in the county ano
when cattle are found infested with,
or exposed to the cattle fever tick,
the owner or keeper of such cnttk
will be served with a State Quarantine
Notice, by the cattle inspector.
Upon receipt of this notice the cattk
owner will be required to disinfect j
all of his cattle (cows, bulls, heifers,
and calves), regularly and thoroughly
every fourteen days in accordant**
with the provisions of the Acts oi
the General Assembly of this State.
By thorough disinfection of the
cattle is meant, that every portion ot
their body must be wet with the disinfectant,
and as the cattle of Horry
county are more or less of a wild
nature, the only cffoctive means for
a thorough disinfection is by the use
of a cattle dipping- vat.
At present there are IS vats completed
in the county (there should
bo at least 75 or 100), which means
that in many instances cattle will
have to be driven quite a distance in
order to have them disinfected. Fo?
this reason we wish to urge those
who have not already built vats that
they get in touch with our local representative,
Dr. Clarke Hcdley, Conway,
S. C., at once, and arrange to,
build their vats. If they are no" j
financially able to build an individual
vat, they can interest their neigh-1
bcrs and build a community vat; by
doing the latter the cost .will be re
latively small.
Those that delay building their
vats will find that they will be put to
a great inconvenience by having to
drive their cattle several miles to
have them dipped, and they must
not blame us for tlus, for we have
been informing them for the past
two years that we would take ,-up

tick eradication work systematically
this spring, and they have had ample
time to make the necessary preparations.
. We have done our part ^nn'i
now we expect them to do theirs.
The adjoining counties of Dillon and
Marion have been freed of ticks.
Horry County is next in line and. we
can not delay the work.
The work is being conducted cooperatively
between Clem son Agricultural
College and the U. S. Bureau
of Animal Industry at a great

the benefit of every citizen in Ilorr;
county, as well as the State of Soutl i
Carolina.
Tick infested cattle means scrul
cattle no matter hew well they ma\
be bred. The cattle owners, of Hor- }
ry county are sustaining an annua, i
less of $50,000.00 on account of '
ticks. The 1910 Census shows that |'
the average value of cattle in Horry <
county that year was only $13.12 pai
head against an average value o'.
$18.37 per head in Anderson County '
S. C. Why? Because \Andersor 1
County at that time had been freer!
of ticks, the quality of tlie cattle
were improved and they were worth 1
more money than the ticky cattle in
Horry county.
Wfhen ticks have been eradicated
from Horry County, the catt'e will
increase in value an average of $7.50
per head. This means the cattle!
owners will be benefitted to the ex

tent of $S5,000.00. The only thing
that stands between the cattle owners
and that $85,000.00 is the tick;
eradicate the tick and the $85,000.00
.s theirs.
The cattle owners in the 20 counties,
in this State that have been
freed of ticks during the last thiee
..cars, have been benefitted over tn>
| and a half million dollars. Why,
i even the hide from a good cow in
the tick free counties is worth as
much tcday as a whole ticky cow
(hide, hoof, horns and meat) in Horry
county.

long will you continue to let the
rattle bar you from the threshold of

RESOLUTIONS
Of County Board of Education of
Horry County.
Whereas, A training school for
teachers has been established in conjunction
with Burrough High School
of Conway, in Horry County, by the
State Board of Education, and,
Whereas, The maintenance of said
teacher training school by the State
depends largely upon the patronage
given it by the teachers of the
county and the results obtained
therefrom, and,
Whereas. We hnhV?vr? if will
highly beneficial to both teachers
and trustees of the county and that
it will be the means of fostering said
school for the trustees of the county
to form an association and that the
principal of said training school
should hold a two-davs Insitute in
Burroughs High School building.
We, therefore, recommend that
the trustees of the county form an
association at the earliest possible
moment and that an institute be
held in the Burroughs High School
building in connection with the
Teacher-Training school Friday and
Saturday, February 9 and 10, 1917.
We further recommend that the
(
trustees of the county urge their
teachers to attend, that said teachers
(
be excused from regular school duties
on Friday, February 9, with full pay, 1
provided they attend all the sessions 1
of the institute. '
